Yeah it is a theory, hence why I said imo and not "this is the way it is"  But I feel any purpose we assign to life is to shield ourselves from our inevitable demise.

it an extra thing, purpose, demise also. life is life. you can add demise to it, but that does not change what it is. you can add purpose to it and if that purpose is not to transcend yourself, it will be utterly arbitrary. so that's it you are faced with adding nothing (very buddhist) or adding something of value (in which case I recommend that you pick something that is more elegant than repetitive)

not an objective that makes sense at this point in medical technology. the self that can be transcended, is the reflexive behavior in the moment:
- it is how you turn away from a thought loop and reorient to the moment.

Fungus always steps up. To quote a friend, "Gahhhh every time there is a disaster, fungus steps in and handles everything.. oh oil spill? lemme clean that up.. climate crisis you say? I'll just release some extra carbon dioxide, that should do it.. oh expand into space with coatings that can withstand a vacuum thus ensuring DNA propagation?!- thats on my resume.."
And its pretty.
